Farmer's Drunk Drive: 10/20/42

Seattle P-I, 10/20/42
The Seattle Times, 10/20/42






























On October 20, 1942, Frances Farmer was pulled over for driving with headlights on in a dim-out zone and was then jailed briefly for drunken driving.  Both The Seattle Times and Seattle P-I covered her drunken driving story, detailing a similar story of how Farmer was "bored" by the dim-out regulations, as well as the police's questions.  The Seattle P-I featured a picture of the actress as well.
